Can't share multiple folders via NFS (only 1 folder)

I created an "exports" file and am able to successfuly share one folder.  The example entry is as follows:
"/Volumes/Drive 1/My Videos" -mapall=root -network 10.0.1 -mask 255.255.255.0
But when I try to share a second folder and restart the NFS server daemon, nothing is shared by OS X at all according to "showmount," either on the host server or on client Macs (all using Lion; I never tried this under Snow Leopard):
"/Volumes/Drive 1/My Videos" -mapall=root -network 10.0.1 -mask 255.255.255.0
"/Volumes/Drive 2/More Videos" -mappall=root -network 10.0.1 -mask 255.255.255 0
Deleting the second entry and OS X shares the one location fine again.
Is there something I'm missing here?

hi Samberl
thanks a lot for the fast reply.
I was dragging folders from main folders on the laptop-desktop  onto the external drive icon - to copy them across....
Your suggestion sounds very promising -  I didn't know about 'cloning'.
Yes the idea is to backup the laptop -    I thought I would just move it all now, new - and then keep saving/dragging physically   across to the new drive myself each day or two...
Would this be the sizeof the internal hard drive = c.500 gb  ?   =   under the HD icon on desktop is written  : 
" 499.76gb , 311.5 gb free  " 
I can erase and start agin on the new external drive - so this plan is to make two partititions, rather than the one at present, and make one of them 500 gb ?
I have found CCC [carbon copy cloner] googling - looks good.
When CCC site says it backs up  the hard drive - would this  mean all my files  [over 100 gb] that are mostly  in folders on the desktop, plus the others in itunes, iphotos etc found in the HD icon,  would all copy across successfully [wherever they are in the computer ]  ?
thanks again, hope you can clarify these things and then I will go for it. 
It would be great and amazing if this 'lack of permission' message doesn't show up in the process of doing this ccc transfer - hopeful!

  • Please add the ability to add multiple folders to the assets folder in order to better organize large numbers of files.

    Please add the ability to add multiple folders to the assets folder in order to better organize large numbers of files.

    Hello KDLadage
    Thank you for your recommendation. I understand the challenges of managing large numbers of files on the My Files page. I also understand the need to preserve project files.
    Perhaps a compromise would be to create an Archive tab under My Files. Previous versions and retired project files could then be automatically moved into this holding area when a new version is published, thus preserving the files in a separate area that is still accessible to the author.
    I will submit this suggestion to our product management team to consider as a future enhancement.

  • Can I export multiple folders at the same time, keeping the album structure

    I'm exporting all of my photos from 2010 so far. Is there a way to export multiple folders at the same time, while keeping the existing album structure? It seems that when I try it, iPhoto exports them all to the same folder.
    I really don't want to do this one album at a time, and here's why -
    I'd like to select all of the albums, then export, using the plugin, to WalMart so that I can order prints.

    Check out [iPhotoToDisk|http://www.iphototodisk.com/index.html]
    I'd like to select all of the albums, then export, using the plugin, to WalMart so that I can order prints.
    Why not upload to Walmart from iPhoto? Check out the first option here:
    There are many, many ways to access your files in iPhoto:
    *For Users of 10.5 and later*
    You can use any Open / Attach / Browse dialogue. On the left there's a Media heading, your pics can be accessed there. Command-Click for selecting multiple pics.
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    (Note the above illustration is not a Finder Window. It's the dialogue you get when you go File -> Open)
    You can access the Library from the New Message Window in Mail:
    Uploaded with plasq's Skitch!
    *For users of 10.4 and later* ...
    Many internet sites such as Flickr and SmugMug have plug-ins for accessing the iPhoto Library. If the site you want to use doesn’t then some, one or any of these will also work:
    To upload to a site that does not have an iPhoto Export Plug-in the recommended way is to Select the Pic in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export and export the pic to the desktop, then upload from there. After the upload you can trash the pic on the desktop. It's only a copy and your original is safe in iPhoto.
    This is also true for emailing with Web-based services. However, if you're using Gmail you can use iPhoto2GMail
    If you use Apple's Mail, Entourage, AOL or Eudora you can email from within iPhoto.
    If you use a Cocoa-based Browser such as Safari, you can drag the pics from the iPhoto Window to the Attach window in the browser.
    *If you want to access the files with iPhoto not running*:
    For users of 10.6 and later:
    You can download a free Services component from MacOSXAutomation which will give you access to the iPhoto Library from your Services Menu. Using the Services Preference Pane you can even create a keyboard shortcut for it.
    For Users of 10.4 and later:
    Create a Media Browser using Automator (takes about 10 seconds) or use this free utility Karelia iMedia Browser
    Other options include:
    1. *Drag and Drop*: Drag a photo from the iPhoto Window to the desktop, there iPhoto will make a full-sized copy of the pic.
    2. *File -> Export*: Select the files in the iPhoto Window and go File -> Export. The dialogue will give you various options, including altering the format, naming the files and changing the size. Again, producing a copy.
    3. *Show File*: Right- (or Control-) Click on a pic and in the resulting dialogue choose 'Show File'. A Finder window will pop open with the file already selected.

  • How can i share a video via email?

    how can i share a video from iMovie 09 (8.0.6) via email?
    I have tried saving to desktop and attaching by even my 1 minute clip will not go through.

    geraldinefromab wrote:
    Yes, the file size is too large.  I am able to email photos through iphoto so i was hoping i'd be able to do the same with imovie....
    So it was your mail server limitations.  Well, as I said, that's what these media sharing services are for.
    It depends on the service, but generally up to about 1GB can be uploaded for free.  You are given a unique and private url of the upload which you give to people who you want to allow to download it.  They can then download the file you uploaded (again for free). 
    When you do the upload you are also given instructions on how to delete your upload if you wish.  It's usually another url.  Then you can delete it later if you wish or just leave up there as long as you want.
    The only restrictions on using these services for free (other than the max file size) is that most will throttle down the download speed and limit how soon you could do two downloads back to back.  Also they ask for a capcha.  Basically they try to be as annoying as possible to make you pay them for their service. 
    By the way, IMO, rapidshare is one of the most annoying of them all.
    I am not familiar with the one Matt Clifton is recommending.  It's probably is as good as any to choose.  As I said there are hundreds of them.  All have a similar paradigm (free vs. paid).  Google something like "sites like rapidshare" and you tons of them.

  • Can I import multiple folders at once?

    I'm pretty sure that Aperture won't support what I want to do...but I thought I'd ask anyway...
    I'm converting to Aperture from Photoshop Elements.  I've got all my photos arranged nicely in the following structure:
    \Photo-directory
      \year
        \month
          \mm-dd-yy some descriptive name for the shoot
    When I try to import into Aperture, I have to navigate all the way to "...\mm-dd-yy some descriptive name for shoot" folder.  Aperture is smart enough to figure out that I want to store these images in a project called "mm-dd-yy some descriptive name..."
    But what I really want to do is this: tell Aperture "Start at /Photo-directory (or even /Photo-directory/year) and import all the images in all the sub-folders...and create projects using the lowest-level folder name as the project name."
    Any way to do this?  A "batch import folders" feature like this would be really sweet...

    You can import whole Finder trees via "File→Import Folders as Projects".  Specify whether you want to end up with Folders/Projects, or Projects/Albums.  (I always use Folders/Projects.)
    There are many things to consider prior to importing your images and setting up your Library.  Strongly suggest reading the User Manual chapter (click for link) --
    Importing Images
    especially the section
    Importing Folders of Images from the Finder
    You are going to want to fully understand the difference between a Managed Master and a Referenced Master before making the switch to Aperture.  Additionally, get ready for the discomfort of moving from a file-manager approach (using the Finder) to an image-manager (using Aperture).
    In Aperture, you organize your images -- but your images don't exist as image-format files usable by other programs until you export them.

  • How can I share multiple calendars in iCal with several different people?

    I need to share multiple calendars created in iCal with all our staff. Do I enter their individual email addresses separated by a semi-colon or a "plus" sign or how. I tried entering all the email addresses with the semi-colon and when I go back to look at sharing, it just shows one email address.

    I am assuming that you are referring to a responsive layout that has divisions that reposition themselves according to the width of the client browser window.
    Rather than go into a teaching mode on this forum, let me point you to a nifty free Dreamweaver extension that will help you to achieve this. Have a look here http://www.dmxzone.com/go/21759/dmxzone-bootstrap?utm_source=Blog&utm_medium=link&utm_cont ent=DMXzone+Bootstrap+Released…

  • Best way to share publc folders via internet w mac and pc

    Hope someone can help me. New mac user w/ Macbook pro and osx 4.6. Dont' want to pay for .mac but do want to share large files from my public folder with my kid (ibook) and a close friend(pc w/ xp). want them to be able to copy files as well as leave files for me in the drop box.
    I'm connecting to the net using comcast cable internet with a d-link wireless modem and I don't know if this affects the info I should be plugging in. Can I file share from the coffee house or just from home? Wireless seem to work great but can't figure out the best option for file sharing. Have read felix and apple help docs and tried to connect with daughter using apple events, personal file share, etc but asp addresses are not recognized. Maybe I am not using the correct router numbers. Really don't grok ports and TCP too much although I read that TCP is the option on osx 4 and later. I hesitate to turn my firewall all the way off. would it be safer to use stealth mode or would this make it more difficult to connect with trusted friends?
    Isn't there some great shareware that can automate this for me? Or can some one walk me through what I should do? Would greatly appreciate your help.

    I really like using OS X's built in file sharing tool, this can be enabled in the System Preferences. Here you can learn much more about it and its features.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106461
    File Sharing allows you to copy items from one computer to another, or to use files stored on another computer.

  • Can't share Safari link via Twitter on iPhone5

    Hi all,
    I've just upgraded to an iPhone5, latest iOS (6.1.4) and restored my old iPhone 4 set-up via iCloud back-up. Everything's fine so far, except for my Twitter account. It works fine, until I try to share a page I've opened in Safari via Safari Twitter share button. I just get a message telling me 'Cannot send tweet [link details] because the connection to Twitter failed'.
    I can RT and send Tweets, I'm signed in to Twitter via the iPhone app and via Safari. If I check my Safari settings, there doesn't appear to be anything I can set or change to sort things out. In my Twitter settings, I notice there are only two apps listed under 'Allow these apps to use your account' (and one of them, bizarrely, is Twitter!). There doesn't seem to be any way to add an app to the list that Twitter can use. What's annoying is that on my iPhone 4 there were a whole bunch of apps that I could use with Twitter.
    Restoring from my old phone back-up should have simply transferred everything over as it was. That's what's happened with everything else I've checked. I'm guessing, only guessing, that my problem might have something to do with how Twitter is integrated into Safari in iOS 6 in a way it wasn't before.
    The only other thing that could affect this is the fact that, because I was on an iPhone 4, I didn't upgrade to iOS 6, sticking with the final iOS 5 instead. Even so, I had no warnings or prompts telling me this might be a problem when I upgraded.
    Sorry for involved explanation, but if anyone can help, I'd be grateful.

    Thanks. It turns out the solution is simpler, but extremely annoying. Despite being signed into Twitter on my twitter up and being able to use Twitter in every way possible except for sharing, it turns out that I had to be signed on on my phone via my web browser version of Twitter for it to recognise that I was connected to Twitter. It makes no sense, and also means that the transefr between iPhone 4G and iPhone 5 is not quite as thorough as it wants us to believe, because everything was OK on my previous phone. Although I must confess I don't remember logging in via my browser on that - it was some years ago though.
    So, resolved, and perhaps a minor irritation - but one of those times when you wonder if things could be a little more intuitive.

  • Can't save multiple folders to external drive. Get: "The operation can't be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items." when dragging large folders to mac os extended journalled external drive from OS 10.6.8

    Hi
    I am feeling  VERY desperate!
    After losing an external drive [dont ask....]  -   I got  another one :  2TB WD formatted properly [ OS extended journalled for mac ] ready for action to move  my thousands of files and images and ppts in hundreds of folders across from the laptop to this drive because I travel a bit with the laptop and this is too risky not to back up at home.
    But this message came up after starting on moving folders across [** and not straight away, sometimes after moving  a folder  when  4 of 6 gb of files across  then the message comes up  = very frustrating]:
    "The operation can’t be completed because you don't have permission to access some of the items."
    I am  dragging mixed sometimes large complex folders to this  os extended journalled external drive from my mac book pro OS 10.6.8  - it would take decades to move items one by one or even folder by folder and really confusing. 
    I have  dragged-copied  various small folders and files across successfully, but it is only working 50:50 and I can't leave machine with the idea of things copying eg: overnight - it just won't work....
    I have been browsing google and find some people describing in CODE how they overcome this 'message'   .... but  I  [and I guess some other viewers of this in future & also in desperation]  would need  instructions for beginners....  to try this type of thing.  I don't know any code.
    How can this be happening - I feel ANGRY at APPLE !!!!  for not posting easy fix instructions yet re; this, or better still  updating software so it doesn't happen [ that I can find at least  !!! ] .   There seem to be hundreds of people stuck with this stupid message and inability to back up their projects etc.
    Can anyone help ?
    Many thanks

  • Batch Automation, can it create multiple folders?

    using CS2...I know how to create actions and use the Batch Automation thing but not sure how or if this is possible...
    I have a ton of folders in one folder. inside each folder are a bunch of TIF files. I want to create an action to run as a batch to open that TIF, convert it to JPG then save in a separate folder with the same name in another folder. Basically im duplicating what I have in one folder to another folder with one being the original TIFs and the new set being JPG, all in folders of the same names.
    Basically I know how to do all of this except when I set up the batch, it seems to only allow the new JPGs to be saved in a single folder. It can pull all the TIFs using the "include subfolders" in the source section but only places the new/revised file into a single folder. If this makes and sense, can it be done?

    Lark:
    Bob's undoubtedly right. You can do this from bridge. To mirror the structure you duplicate it, action it (from Bridge?) and then you're done. To do it with Photoshop:
    1. Duplicate structure ("Big folder" becomes "Big folder copy"). Save "Big folder" as backup.
    2. Make an action by opening one of your pics, and then recording an action. Save as JPEG with the settings as you want. Stop recording. Close window and delete test JPEG.
    3. Automate...batch. Use your new action. Source is folder "Big folder copy". Make sure to select "embedded folders". Don't check anything else in the source area. Destination is "Save and close" and make sure to check the "override save options" box.
    4. Run it. Then you should be able to use Spotlight to search for all .tif files in folder "Big folder copy" and delete them from Spotlight.
    I'm sure this is much slicker some other way (maybe even with image processor). But it works.

  • Can't share internet connection via firewire - missing something obvious?

    I have my G4 933 connected via ethernet to a Dynalink RTA100+ DSL modem/router. Would like to share this internet connection with anther G4 450 (time warp here) over firewire until I sort a proper router... both are running on 10.4.11
    I connected the computers with firewire cable and configured the firewire ports Manually (as I couldn't get DHCP to populate them in the right range).
    Tried initially turning on Personal File and Web Sharing on each, but couldn't get a Ping to go through g4 to g4, even though I can see each firewire port's ip in each other's routing table info...
    Also turned on Internet Sharing over Firewire port from Ethernet but G4 450 can't connect.
    Read somewhere that you can't do both, so have reverted to just trying to get the Internet Sharing working (as that's all the kids really want on their computer!)
    Dug around in the modem for ages tried it in Bridge mode, couldn't connect either computer to internet then so have gone back to normal PPP settings with DHCP.

    Hi Rose,
    You can't Manually set the IPs for Internet Sharing according to Apple, (I've done it, but not consistently),
    You do want the G4/450 to use DHCP, the G4/933 will likely end up handing out an IP to the 450 of 192.168.2.4, (one higher in the 3rd & 4th place, and wont work if the 933 started out as x.x.2.x), but it must do it itself to keep track of NAT within itself.
    True you can't do both File & Internet Sharing at once.
    On the G4/933, en0/Ethernet needs to be dragged to the top of Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations. On the G4/450, fw0/Firewire needs to be dragged to the top of Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations.
    Internet Sharing needs to be OFF on the 450 & rebooted if it was ON.
    As far as the Setting not sticking, there may be more, but Trash these two files on the 933 then Reboot...

  • Can't share to facebook via safari anymore??

    When Safari opens a link on my iphone and I want to share it to my facebook page, I used to be able to hit the envelope with the arrow coming out of it on the bottom of the screen (middle). When I do this now, facebook is not longer listed on my phone, however Twitter, Print, Add Bookmark, Add a Reading List, Add to Home Screen, Mail Link to this Page are all options.  My husband gets Facebook as an option on his iphone, and as I said I used to as well. How do I get this capability back? It drives me nuts without it.

    In theory, slash or colon were not allowed in filenames.
    For years, the operating system did its best to behave correctly with them.
    It seems that, at last, Apple decided that the rule must apply and we see examples of tools failing when the rule isn't applied.
    I remember that some years ago we had the same kind of problems with filename embedding the character # which is legal.
    During 11 days I fought against the Bug Reporter Web site which failed when I tried to file a reporet with an attachment.
